Yeah, the bozos who design the roads (and those who fund them, too) wouldn't 
want to do anything REAL to alleviate traffic. They should've widened the 
spurs when they widened 270 years ago.  Makes little sense to have people 
speeding to a stop at the split.  

On that note... why, why, why, does 495 lose a lane just before River 
road (outer loop), and then regain it *at* River Road?  This causes TONS 
of traffic when people merge into and then out of the right lane. Same 
deal at the GW parkway and Key Bridge... sheesh.
